I am taking this chance to wish you a happy new year and a prosperous 2008.Here in Kenya it is not happy new year, it is a sad new year after the incumbent rigged the just concluded general election.  Currently the situation is tense and people are fighting, killing each other in different parts of the country.  If there is anyone who intend to visit Kenya, I will suggest that they put that arrangement on hold until things cool down.There is a protest countrywide and the opposition leader Raila Odinga has called on his supporters for a peaceful mass action.On Thursday 3rd, there will be a rally in Nairobi organised by the opposition

I suspect that things might be worse than it is at the moment.  We are just praying that the electoral commision will reverse the dicision and declare Raila Odinga the legitimate winner of the 2007 general election.  Today calm has returned in few cities but this, I think it is just temporary.

The schools are supposed to reopen on 7th that is next Monday but if things continue the way it is at the moment, then I think it will be impossible.  We are just hoping that the situation will change and those who rigged the election will see the reality and reverse the trend.  Already the commissioners who were overseeing the election process have admitted that there was anomaly with tallying.The European Union has also questioned the credibility of the results.

We are living in fear because communities are targeting each other.  There are those who voted for the incubent and those who voted for Raila.
